Kerry Katona
- Profession: Singer
- Place/Date of Birth: Warrington, 06 September 2020
Favourite moments from all three - Kerry saying she couldn’t hold the rope as ’she felt dizzy’ leaving Mike Read swaying in the breeze up a waterfall, Kerry and Jordan’s jungle dancing, Kerry eating the cockroaches and saying she wouldn’t eat the fish eye as it had ’conjunctivitis’, and declaring her love for Bryan and her girls every hour. Jennie smuggling mascara in her knickers, humming and repeating her daughters name whilst buried underground with rats, being the group’s mum, teasing Lord Brocket the rocket at every given opportunity. Peter - blimey. Collecting all the stars by putting his head in increasingly scary boxes of creatures, flirting with Jordan and sulking when she teased him, cuddling up to her late at night, singing and doing weird dances around the camp, like a male pigeon sticking his crest out, going fishing and catching cray fish when everyone was hungry.
Who will you crown King or Queen of the Jungle? You decide.
Bryan loses wedding ring -8 Feb 04
Oh dear - Bryan will be in trouble when Kerry realizes he has lost his wedding ring.
Bryan has flown over to Queensland to surprise Kerry when she leave the jungle, but he has lost his wedding ring whilst out surfing with Lord Brocket’s son Alex and Razor Ruddock’s son Josh. The platinum and diamond ring is not believed to be insured and Bryan has offered a £5,000 reward on a local radio show, as well as spending a day on the beach with a metal detector.
Bryan told ITV1’s This Morning: "I went back to the hotel and went to bed for an hour, and when I woke up I looked at my hand and thought, ’Where’s the ring?’ I started looking around the room and then it clicked in my head - oh my God." He tracked down a paparazzo photographer who had snapped him surfing, and the pictures showed he was wearing the ring before he entered the water but not after. Bryan said: "It’s OK because the security over here have rented a metal detector. So we’re going ring hunting. We were just saying what a glorious picture it will be for the paparazzi - me standing in my wellies with a fishing rod, fishing for a ring."
Kerry believes Bryan is back at home rehearsing with the band. But he has flown out to surprise her and will be there when she leaves the jungle. "She has no idea I’m here, she’s going to be very shocked to see me," he said.
The former Atomic Kitten has been upset at missing daughter Lilly Sue’s first birthday. Bryan said she had also missed the little girl’s first steps. "She walked three steps on her first birthday," he said. "We’re not going to tell Kerry. We’re just going to say she hasn’t and then let Lilly do it in front of her."
Kerry ’Queen of the Jungle?’ - 5 Feb 04
Since Jordan’s popularity has gone down, Kerry’s has risen, leaving her to be the preferred female winner for the show.
Kerry may have been dubbed the whinger, but she could be called the winner after bookies William Hll have said that she stands ’a far greater chance of being Queen of the Jungle’; and have given her odds of 7/2.
Go Girls! - 2 Feb 04
Kerry and Jordan had the ’eating the bugs’ trial, and both did astoundingly well chowing down live cockroaches and the like.
The bushtuckers trial was the infamous ’Bite for Bite’, and the celebs chosen were fearless Jordan and Kerry, the blonde babe who gets freaked out by any sort of creepie crawlie. Good choice fella’s. Anyway, the girls dressed up for the occasion, with Jordan selecting to wear just her bikini bottoms with her top - leading John Lydon to snigger that at least they were dressed for the camera’s as they set off hand in hand.

The band soon made it to the top of the charts but Kerry had met Westlife star Bryan McFadden and fallen in love. In 2001, just two years after the Kittens reached stardom Kerry left the band to start a family with Bryan. They were soon engaged and she gave birth to their first child Molly.
The celebrity couple moved to Ireland and were married in 2002. However, revelations about Bryan’s alleged affair with a lap dancer very nearly ruined everything. In 2003 Kerry and Bryan’s second daughter, Lilly, was born and Kerry really started to throw herself in to presenting with a new job on daytime TV’s Loose Women. She was also offered a trip to Australia for a series of I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! She was crowned Queen of the Jungle and husband Bryan was there to meet her on her exit. However just months later the pair announced that they were to split with Kerry taking their children back to England.
Since the split Kerry has had a couple of relationships and numerous highly publicised personal problems, including a battle with drugs and drink. She has recently announced that she is pregnant by her fiance Mark Croft. She and Bryan (or Brian as he now prefers it) are set to meet in court over custody of Lilly and Molly.
